Elastic Adhesive Bandage (EAB) – Flexible Compression Bandage for Sports & Rehabilitation Use

Elastic Adhesive Bandage (EAB) is a stretchable, high-adhesion sports bandage designed to deliver controlled compression, muscle and joint support, and secure strapping without overly restricting mobility. Combining elasticity with a strong zinc oxide adhesive, EAB is widely used across sports medicine, physiotherapy, and contact sports for injury prevention and recovery.

Ideal for ankle taping, knee stabilization, hamstring support, and post-operative compression, EAB balances firm fixation and user comfort, making it a staple in both professional clinics and athletic training rooms.
